Hmm interesting. It's from a local breeder, I was told it's an EE but the comb doesn't look like most EEs I've seen on here. She/he started off pretty much all white and the red feathers have come in over time. This was her about a month ago, she's in the front.
I am wondering if anyone has guesses on my 7 week old Buff Orpington and 7 week old EE.

Easter egger/mutt really has me stumped. Her tail feathers grew in super early and she's pretty timid, but comb seems to be growing.

I'm a bit confused by Goochland's chicken laws. It looks like a house on 4 acres with residential zoning could have 3 horses but only 6 chickens? Am I reading that right?

I forgot to mention there is a top hinge window on the right (east) side of the coop, it's 11" above the boards.
If I take out 3 boards on the right side and set up the roost there, will it be too cold in the winter here in Virginia? There would be approximately 2 feet of roost on either side...
I bought a house that came with a chicken coop, so of course we are planning to get chickens now! Unfortunately the previous owner passed away, so we did not get to ask about the coop layout. I am trying to get a "vision" of what should go where.

First, there is a swing...
